Fuel Filter replacement for a Mobius LSV

[spyder]

Does anyone have the part number for the Fuel Filter on a 2006 Mobius LSV? The numbers are on the bottom and I cant read it without removing the filter, and I don't want to take the filter off until I can ensure a local store has the part..

Looking for a part number or any sort of reference.

Thanks

Also do you have do unhook the battery or any other advice prior to removing the filter. Do you have to worry about getting air in the line?

On my LS I just put a c clamp on the hose on either side of the filter and take the filter to a local auto parts store. From memory I think it's 3/8".

I just found in another post for an 06 LS that the fuel filter is

The fuel filter is a Carquest brand #86299, or Wix # 33299.

I am going to try and find out if any local stores in Ontario, Canada have parts like this.

This looks to be the one....

that looks like the filter.

when i took it to a auto part store they about freaked at how large the in and out hose lines were. but they were able to cross reference it.

awesome, looks to be about $11.95CAD at carquest.

They also carry a FRAM model at walmart. It is a larger diameter filter with 3/8 inlet and outlet. It can't hurt to have more filter media as long as you have the clearance for it. My 02 had the larger filter which does not look like the one pictured. It is smooth on the sided without the "Crimp" in the middle. That looks like a small filter in the pic.

I personally have been using a Hastings filter -

I want a fancy one with clear sides so you can see if its dirty or not....

boo to these ugly ones!

You can use one of the clear ones. As a matter of fact, if so inclined, you can change hose diameters and put the one of your wildest fantasies in place.

As long as the flow rate is maintained, should be ok.

Hope this helps
